Since 1957, AutoMeter has set the standard in performance, accuracy and durability with their legendary Tachometers. The absolute pinnacle of engineering and technology, it’s no wonder AutoMeter can lay claim to more motorsports victories than every other gauge manufacturer combined. This model is designed for the specific needs of competition diesel use, featuring a unique sensor engineered to be mounted near the crank pulley which creates a signal from 4 machined grooves or 4 raised bolt heads to precisely monitor engine speed. The patented air core meter movement, wound in house to exacting standards, can move the needle from 0 - 6,000 rpm in just 333 milliseconds ensuring that you never have to worry that your engine is spinning faster than the tach and includes a built-in memory recall to allow review of the highest RPM achieved on your last pass or hook. Built for a lifetime of service under the harshest conditions, this is the no compromise tach for no compromise builds. When you’re ready for the best, there isn’t another choice.

is there an option similar to this for a diesel that includes a shift light? its going in a vehicle was built from the factory with no tachometer so a sensor and harness will be required as well

Asked by: scuba steve

Hi Steve, thank you so much for contacting us. While this exact tach is not available with a shift light, we do offer a diesel tach adapter that will allow you to very easily use any of our tachometers with a diesel engine:

Will this tach work with your alternator pick up #9112?
Thankyou. Vince B.

Asked by: Vince Baxter

Hi Vince, thank you for the question. The 6806 comes with its own type of sensor (model 5211) and will not be compatible with the 9112 style adapter. The 9112 pick-up will work with any standard electronic ignition tachometer. We have introduced several 6,000 RPM tachometers to our standard line to better suit a diesel range, like model 3997 - https://www.autometer.com/5-in-dash-tachometer-0-6-000-rpm-sport-comp.html
